FH and I met with the Deacon at our parish this week to schedule the ceremony and discuss marriage classes. He told us that the fee for the ceremony was $750, $180 for the organist and the classes were $300. I feel like that is a lot of money! We aren't even having a full ceremony! The fee for the ceremony is supposed to be considered a 'donation' and the Deacon said he'd work with us but I feel like it sacrilegious to bargaining with the church. Does these prices seem reasonable?
